IMPROVEMENT IN SlPHCiN-BOTTLES.

Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 122,403, dated January2, 1872.

Specification describing certain Improve ments in. Siphon-Bottles'forAerated W'aters, invented by THOMAS PIMER, of New London, in thecounty-of New London and State of Connecticut.

The nature of my invention consists in constructing the ordinarysiphon-bottles with an extra neck, through which the bottle is filledwith the liquid before the latter is charged with gas, which is forcedin through the siphon after the extra neck has been hermetically sealed.

The siphon-bottles now in common use are filled from the fountainthrough the siphon with liquid already charged with gas, and it becomesnecessary in filling to let some of the gas es I cape from the bottle topermit the entrance of the liquid, thereby reducing the pressure he- 10wwhat it should be. I v

The object sought and obtained by my improvement is the prevention ofthe loss of gas 1- in filling siphon-bottles with aerated waters.

The drawing represents an elevation of my improved siphon-bottle,showing that portion which carries the extra neck in section.

A refers to the bottle, and B to the device called the siphon, which iscast around the usualneck of the bottle in the ordinary way, andotherwise constructed in the wellknown manner. 0 is the extraneck formedon one side of the bottle, extending up to the height it is intended tofill the bottle with liquid. This neck, after the bottle has been filledwith the liquid, is hermetically sealed by means of any approvedstopper, the one shown, 0, being a cap with an internal screw-threadadapted to threads formed on the exterior of the neck. The liquid canthen be charged with gas through the siphon until the desired pressureis attained. By this method of filling siphon-bottles with aeratedwaters there will be no escape of gas, and the consequent loss ofpressure Will be prevented.

I am aware that lamp-bowls, filtering and pouring bottles have beenconstructed with an extra neck, and do not, therefore, intend to claimbroadly a hollow vessel with two necks. What I claim as m y invention,and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

A siphon-bottle, A B, constructed with an extra neck, 0, substantiallyas and for the pur- I pose specified.

In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in thepresence of two subscribing witnesses.
